3.2 Principle of operation
VEGAPULS 64 is a radar sensor for continuous level measurement of
liquids.
The small process fittings offer particular advantages in small tanks or
tight mounting spaces. The very good signal focusing ensures the use
in vessels with many installations such as stirrers and heating spirals.

The instrument emits a continuous radar signal through its antenna.
This signal is frequency modulated in the form of a sawtooth wave.
The emitted signal is reflected by the medium and received by the
antenna as an echo.
